Above the mage!

Chapter 387 Everything is done

As soon as Godard walked out of the door, he ran into Flora head-on.

Flora, who had just returned from planting trees in Varar Bay.

"Mage, Lady Flora is back!" The little man's eyes sparkled.

"Have all the tree species been planted?" asked Gode.

"Planted." Flora puffed out her chest and said crisply, the words "seeking credit" were almost written on her face.

"It's amazing. Only Lady Flora can take care of so many kinds of trees." Gode exclaimed.

Even ordinary tree species have various requirements to take root, sprout and thrive, let alone magic tree species.

In the spiritual land opened up by Yugath-Shira, there are nearly a hundred species of trees, including many magical tree species.

So far, all the trees have been able to grow normally and healthily, which is naturally inseparable from Flora's care.

"Lady Flora is both capable and hardworking. I admire people like this the most."

"Next time, I will definitely bring back more magic tree seeds for Lady Flora." Gode promised.

"Devil tree seed!"

"Yes."

"What's in your hand?" Flora suddenly saw the new edition of the standard rune textbook that Gode had just completed in his hand.

"This is a textbook prepared for Anna," Godard said honestly. "She is very smart and is a good candidate for this."

"Oh~"

"Oh~" Seeing that Godel didn't respond, Flora said "Oh" again.

"Of course, Lady Flora is smarter, but it is not suitable for Lady Flora, so I will not teach Lady Flora." Goder reacted, thought about it, and explained.

It's that it is not suitable for Lady Flora, not that Lady Flora is not suitable for it.

"Oh!"

"I'm going to look for Anna. Lady Flora, do you want to come with me?" Goder asked.

Flora's movements were faster than her voice. She landed on Goder's shoulders first, sat down, swung her legs, and then said crisply, "Together!"

"Then let's go together."

When Anna was seen, the little girl was burying her head in front of a piece of parchment, shaking her head and mumbling something.

"What is Anna doing?"

As soon as she heard Gode's voice, Anna immediately shifted her attention from the parchment to Gode, and uttered an excited voice: "Brother Gode!"

"Are you learning Ace language?" Goder took a closer look and found that the parchment contained the basic introductory "100-note table" of Ace language.

What the little girl was mumbling just now was exactly the hundred-note table.

"My sister said that we will settle in the North in the future, and we must master the local language as soon as possible." Anna pouted.

She thought that her sister was "recruited" by Gaode to work and had no time to "teach" her, so she was free.

It turns out that Elsa has plenty of tricks up her sleeve.

If I am too busy during the day, I will work overtime to give Anna extra lessons at night. If I don’t have enough time to teach Anna, I will assign more homework to Anna.

"That's indeed true." Goder agreed with Elsa on this point. After all, after coming to the North, he had worked hard to master the Ace language.

"But my sister wants me to continue learning music, painting, and literature in addition to Ace language."

Anna counted on her fingers and chattered away, "This isn't Xidian, there's no need to learn these things."

"My sister said that she would send me to a school in Phoenix in the future."

Gao De rubbed Anna's little head and said with a smile: "What you said makes some sense."

Things like music, painting, and literature are definitely useful, but they are not required to learn.

These things are best learned if you are interested in them.

"Brother Gaode, are you here to see me?" After complaining, Anna raised her head and stared at Gaode with hope in her eyes.

"Yes," Goder nodded without hesitation, "I specially prepared a gift for you."

"Gift?" Anna's eyes brightened.

"Dingdeng~" Gaode took out the still warm new edition of Standard Rune Literature from his arms.

"What is this?" The little girl widened her eyes.

"I just wrote a textbook on runes." Seeing Anna's face fall, Godard, who had satisfied his evil taste, continued, "You learn this, and I will talk to Elsa. You don't have to learn music, painting, etc. in the future."

"how?"

"Really?!" Anna's eyes widened.

Runes is one course, but there are several others, and several courses become one. Anna is good at math, so she naturally knows which one is more cost-effective.

What's more, if they were all about studying, she would prefer to learn this.

Because it’s simple!
It’s much easier than painting!

"Then it's a deal," Gao De said happily, "Now I will teach you the six laws of Hexi. I will not be in the North in a few days, so you have to hurry up. As for the basic runes, you have to learn them by yourself."

"Okay." Anna said obediently.

Godard asked Anna to sit down at the table again, and then opened the New Standard Runes.

According to his preconceived idea, Gao De patiently told Anna the story of mentor He Xi first, and then began to introduce the content of "He Xi's Six Laws".

During the whole process, Flora flapped her little wings and flew back and forth and up and down around the two of them, her eyes full of curiosity and exploration.

Sometimes she would sit on God's shoulders and look at the same perspective as God, looking at the strange symbols and numbers that she knew but looked strange no matter how she looked at them;

Sometimes I looked at Anna with a serious expression, wondering if she really understood, and how she understood.
Time flies by without us noticing.

The little guy has no idea how many times he has changed positions.

Seeing that the two of them were absorbed in their own world and had no time to pay attention to her, she flapped her little wings and flew out of the room to play by herself.

After playing for a while, I felt bored, so I flew back to continue listening. After listening for a while, I felt bored again, so I flew out to play again.

This went on many times until she became tired. She sat on Goder's shoulder, listening to their conversation. She dozed off with her eyelids half drooped as she listened to the rustling sound of the pen tip scratching across the parchment.

It was not until Gode suddenly stood up that Flora woke up.

"Is it over?"

"It's over." Gao De responded to Flora first, and then reminded Anna: "The six laws of He Xi are not complicated in nature, and can even be said to be very concise and clear. But this does not mean that they are not brilliant. On the contrary, great theorems and formulas are often extremely simple. In addition, these basic runes require you to practice hard to master them. This is the basic skill, so don't be lazy."

"I'll check your homework next time I come back."

While he was speaking, he was also feeling emotional in his heart.

Although he had long known that Anna had a great talent in calculation and runes, it was only after he actually started "teaching" that Gao De discovered that Anna's talent in calculation was even higher than he had imagined.

A little girl who had never been exposed to multiplication, division and Arabic numerals was able to complete those not-so-simple robust value calculations in mental arithmetic after her first exposure to Arabic numerals and mathematical symbols.

I just don't know if Anna also has this kind of talent beyond his expectations in runes.

Say goodbye to Anna and leave the room.

Gao De turned his head to look at the little man who was still sitting on his shoulder. "Master, what's wrong?"

"Nothing," Goder replied, and after thinking for a moment he asked, "Lady Flora, have you been listening to me teaching Anna?"

“Not all the time.”

Most of the time I play my own game.

"Can you understand?"

When the little man heard this question, he immediately widened his eyes alertly, looked at Gao De and asked: "Does she understand?"

It refers to Anna.

".I think so?" Gao De said.

"Then Lady Flora also understood a little bit!"

"It's because I didn't listen all the time, so I only understood a little. Otherwise, with Lady Flora's wisdom, I'm sure she would understand as much as she heard."

"Is such that!"

"It's indeed not suitable for Lady Flora, right?" Goder said with a smile.

"Not suitable!" Flora nodded repeatedly in agreement.

"If you are not interested, why does Lady Flora still accompany me?" Goder said seriously.

She had just fallen asleep while listening.

"Because I am accompanying the mage."

"I see." Gao De was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

He thought this was an excellent answer.

He said he would leave the North in a few days, but Goder ended up staying in Phoenix for nearly ten more days.

There are two major things on the table. As the King of True Ice, even though he has already set the direction for these two things, they are related to the development of Phoenix for a long time to come, so he still needs to participate in person to feel at ease.

First up is Phoenix’s first civil service selection.

Due to the special circumstances at the moment, there will be no "written test" for this civil servant selection process, and the process will go directly to an interview.

Gaode asked Elsa to send out a selection notice to the entire Phoenix, and only after three days of warm-up did the interviews officially begin.

The interview process lasted another three days.

As the saying goes, there are all kinds of birds in a big forest.

Today, Phoenix has a population of nearly one million. It is indeed difficult to find the elite talents that are commonly recognized by the outside world, but there are quite a few "talents".

Especially those who dare to come and participate in the selection, they really have more or less some skills.

In this world's culture, most people are quite realistic and few would rather try their luck than say anything.

Among them were seven or eight "experts" who were responsible for construction in their respective tribes, each of whom was good at building different types of houses. Without a doubt, these people were directly recruited into the Ministry of Construction.

In addition, many chiefs of small tribes came to participate in the selection.
They had never heard of the term "civil servants", but in the announcement, Aisha made the rights of civil servants very clear, and in their eyes, they naturally replaced them with "elders".

To a certain extent, it is actually quite similar.

After joining Phoenix, as outsiders, they felt neither a sense of identity nor a sense of security.

If one can become an "elder", then he can be considered a true Phoenix person.

For this reason, dozens of clan leaders, big and small, basically came to participate in the first civil servant selection.

However, being the chief of a clan under such harsh conditions in the North is not an easy task.

Most of these clan leaders have extremely rich life experience and have a deep and intuitive understanding of the climate, geography, resource distribution, etc. in the North.

They know where the snow is stable and suitable for building houses, and how to use limited resources to effectively supply life.
This life experience accumulated based on long-term practice can play a role in urban infrastructure construction, resource development and utilization planning, and response to natural disasters.

In addition, the long-term experience of leading the tribe has also enabled these chiefs to have excellent management and coordination skills.

In the tribe, they need to reasonably distribute limited materials, arrange tribesmen to carry out various activities such as hunting, gathering, and construction, mediate conflicts and disputes among tribesmen, and ensure the normal operation of the tribe.

This ability can be extended to the daily work of civil servants, especially in organizing large-scale construction projects, allocating human resources, and coordinating the interests of different urban areas or groups.

In addition, these clan leaders have extremely high prestige in their respective tribes. If they become civil servants, they can use this prestige to promote the implementation of various policies and tasks.

Of course, the shortcomings are also prominent.

Because these tribe leaders have been in a dominant position in the tribe for a long time, they often develop a stubborn character, are used to acting according to their own experience and judgment, and are not easy to accept new concepts and methods;
They often put the interests of their own tribe first. In urban management decisions, they may pay too much attention to the needs of their own tribe, "bend the law for personal gain", and ignore the overall interests of the entire city...

How to make the best use of one's strengths and avoid one's weaknesses depends on Elsa's ability to coordinate.

The second thing is “universal education” which Gaode values ​​the most.

After three or four days of observation, Chief Quentin has not made any suspicious moves in the past few days.

Except for getting up early the day before, going out, and bringing back a freshly hunted prey, he never left Phoenix.

Usually I just wander around the city, as if I'm collecting folk songs.

Whether this was done for Gode and Sunaifah to see, or whether Quentin was like this all along.

But in short, the Photo Stone is extremely important to Phoenix. For this reason, Gaode did not continue to observe and directly finalized the "Immigration Reception Plan".

——This is the name given by God to this initiative to attract small tribes to join the Phoenix Operation.

However, out of caution, for this first reception operation, Sunaifa sent out a fourth-ring elder from the tribe, who brought people and followed Quentin to the Tuwu tribe.

The Tuwu tribe is very far away from Phoenix, and it takes a long time to travel back and forth, so if you want to obtain a large number of photo stones, you will have to wait a long time.

However, Quentin happened to still have three or four photo stones on him, so Gaode took them all.

Then, he organized the teachers of Phoenix No. 01 Middle School to serve as "actors", with himself as the "director", and the Deputy Minister of Education Aisha watching and learning. He spent half a day directing Phoenix's first "film class": "Introduction to Common Language--".

Yes, in the end Gaode named this type of course "film class" instead of the online class mentioned at the beginning: there is neither a reason nor a feature, so calling it an online class is somewhat inadequate.

"Shadow Lesson" is extremely vivid and figurative. Firstly, it is named after the word "shadow" in the shadow stone, and secondly, its form is a record of light and shadow.

During this process, Gaode made clear the format, norms and details that should be paid attention to of the "film class".

After that, you can record the "film class" according to this standard.

This is very necessary. The "Shadow Class" thing is very familiar to Gaode and is not complicated in nature.

But for the people in this world, this is a brand new concept, a brand new thing.

Neither teachers nor students could imagine what this thing looked like.

No matter how much Amap explains the concept, without an example, it is difficult for them to understand what to do.

Therefore, Gaode needs to set an example for them first.

After these two major events, Gao De remembered one more thing: one of his origins had entered a deficit state.

He immediately gave orders again to the tribe's hunters to capture different kinds of earth vein creatures.

After finishing all this, Gode took the many supplies that Sunaifah had prepared for him and prepared to go to Valar Bay and teleport back to the Plantagenet Dynasty through the astral realm.

Just as he was about to leave, for some unknown reason, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
